Want to Get Married Online in Pennsylvania? Here’s the Real Deal
So, you’re in Pennsylvania, you’re ready to tie the knot, and you’re wondering—can you get married online in Pennsylvania? Short answer: sort of. Long answer: with the right help, absolutely.
Hi, I’m one of the folks behind Virtual Same Day Marriage, and I’ve helped couples all over Pennsylvania (and the world) get legally married—without ever stepping foot in a courthouse.
Let me walk you through how we make getting married online in Pennsylvania easy, legal, and surprisingly fast.
Can You Really Get Married Online in Pennsylvania?
Let’s break this down. In Pennsylvania, couples still need to get a marriage license in person, unless your county offers remote licensing (a few do—but it’s rare). However, the ceremony itself can absolutely be done online.
And here’s where things get interesting…
If you want to skip all the courthouse visits and get married legally from home (or from anywhere in the world), your best bet is using Utah’s online marriage law—which Pennsylvania fully recognizes. That’s where we come in.
The Smartest Option: Use a Legally Recognized Utah Online Marriage
Thousands of Pennsylvania couples have taken advantage of this:
✅ You get legally married online via Zoom through a Utah officiant
✅ Your Utah-issued marriage certificate is valid in Pennsylvania
✅ No courthouse visit. No Pennsylvania paperwork. No stress.
It’s fast. It’s valid. It’s 100% legal. And most importantly—it works.
